[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] karanrajkapur:
Well guys, I'm up with the review for v8 (for those who are still thinking to flash it!)

Used this for about a week, and I must say that its super stable for our devices with amazing performance and battery life!

For starting it up, I'd like to tell that I made a clean install over the SuperFusion v4 kernel and I did restore my previous app data using Titanium Backup and that I don't use OSBs since that eats up the screen space. In addition, I use XPOSED Framework for further modding and Greenify for disabling user apps. And I don't play games on my device since I have my PS3 and PSP for that purpose,Won't comment much on camera either since I use my Canon EOS 1100D. so my review would be based totally on my usage parameters (which shall be enough for considering it to be a daily driver).

1. Hell lot faster than the previous builds.

2. Loads of free RAM even after installing around 35+ apps. It still sometimes goes to around 30-50MB without any cached or background processes.

3. Overnight battery drain is good but lies at "~5%" and lives up for approximately 20hours with normal usage and around 12-14 hours with heavy usage. Realtime battery drain has still been brought down drastically. Appreciated!

4. Just 2 flaws which I found existing in this ROM:

(i). The screen doesn't turn up quickly on receiving a call, it's just the ringtone that sounds. Takes around 3-4 seconds to light up.

(ii). Unable to block the hosts file, even on using AdFree and AdAway.

5. System slows down just a little after some days.

6. If the device isn't restarted in about a day, then the Bluetooth doesn't turn on and requires a restart.

7. Frequent CPU wakelocks. The device won't go into deep sleep quickly.

8. Don't know why how I got "1%" overnight drain on the first night since it's never been the same again!

9. Acceptable camera quality.

Would like to mention my CPU settings.

Min. Frequency: 134MHz

Max. Frequency: 1017MHz

Governor: InteractiveX

Scheduler: sio

zRAM: Stock settings.

All animations set to: 0.5x

Hoping to get a fix for the problems in the next build! (Y)

Thanks [MENTION=4733114]harsh586[/MENTION] for this epic ROM! :)

Happy Flashing!
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] shubh_007:
It is set on default i.e. 134Mhz which is the lowest option available. Should I increase it??
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] DarkStryder:
Only if u have sound distortions, or small lags, otherwise leave it, u people overclocking, u should try increasing min freq instead of overclocking, obviously dont take min more than 500 mhz 600mhz max
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] shubh_007:
Just read 5 msgs back. I have mentioned my problem. Btw It doesn't happen always.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Attitude.SSJ:
Generally the voltage allotted for clock speeds upto 300 or 400 mhz is the same... So you don't lose anything even if you raise the min upto 300...
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] shubh_007:
Ok. I'll increase and see if that helps. One more thing. I just saw my phone did not enter sleep today. Battery down to 10% in 11hrs. The culprit was not any app but Android System. I don't have gps turned on.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Madaditya:
This will happen for a few days

Till the rom settles...not after that

Always after a fresh install don't play with it for 3-4 hours,allow it to settle and charge it full after a fresh install..this helps a little

And Xposed stuff relating systemui dosent damage your systemui

It just redirects the images from systemui to a specific app

So its harmless
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] ameyk85:
Nice review Karan. One interesting thing which I observed was that if i fully charge the phone (around 2 hrs) before going to bed, the overnight battery drain was 0%!! Battery level was at 100% itself in the morning with mobile data off ofcourse.

Whereas, the other day my battery was at 74%, but in the morning the battery level was at 67%, i.e 7% overnight drain with data off and more or less same conditions as before. Unable to understand the reason for such variation :confused:
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] bloodysak:
This question might have been already asked but since I was not able to follow Harsh's ROM and and other developments related to it for the past few months I am extremely sorry for asking this question.

Does the latest version of the Super Fusion Kernel available for my Xperia Neo V and do I have flash those Modules to get wifi working working or will they work without it.

Thank You:confused

:confused:
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] karanrajkapur:
Yeah! Even I've experienced something of the same sort, but it wasn't "0%" ever! :confused:
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] ameyk85:
Yes, latest SuperFusion-KK kernel is available for Neo V. Wifi works by default, the modules have only been provided incase Wifi is not working for some. All you have to do is flash kernel and then the ROM. And next time, please do take the effort to search and read a bit ;)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] WaterMelon90:
after install the GravityBox and restarted..the GravityBox appear "gravitybox framework not responding".. Any problem of it?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] DarkStryder:
You have to install, xposed framework! And then enable from that app so gravity box can work!

Search in google: xposed framework, go to official page and download.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] manoj_nike15:
Flashed the OSB from the link it dint work for me :(... Flashed many Many OSB zips on Sjb 7 and 8.. none of them worked fr me
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] mayankbhatia5:
go to setting ,apps then clear the data of gravity box
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] RAMJISUN:
Thank you for providing the OSB. I just flashed it via CWM and it worked perfectly!
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Holymen:
wifi is not working no matter what.

i deleted everything i flashed the modules but still the wifi is not working

i reflashed the rom many time but no luck.

any hlep?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] ameyk85:
Try flashing only the Kernel again and check.... if not working, try flashing modules...

If still facing issues switch to another kernel Fusion 5.4 or earlier versions SuperFusion.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] WaterMelon90:
It's worked! I moved it into internal storage and re-install it..reboot and everything run well!

For those who are still searching for OSB can install the GravityBox..it worked for me!
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] badboy4a2:
Have you added qemu.hw.mainkeys=0 in build.prop?? If not, just add it and restart the phone. It is not there by default in SJB 8 build.prop
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] -TheJoker-:
I have an issue when I add some applications in a folder that I created on deckstop when I reboot phone the applications dissapear from the folder and I have to move them again
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] gagan.u20:
Probably those apps are installed on SD card. Move then to phone memory if you want their shortcuts on desktop.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] -TheJoker-:
But before I didn't have that issue and I have the same applications at SD card

No 3g/2g data connection

Hi,

I am not getting 3g/2g data connection on my mobile since flashing V8.Is anyone facing this issue??

My wifi is working fine but no data connection.Though i am not sure if this is related to rom.Please Help
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] shubh_007:
I am assuming you have followed all the instructions of flashing this rom. There shouldn't be any such problems and no one else has reported it till now. Did you try changing the apn settings manually or downloading it from your service provider. Maybe you are missing them.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] manoj_nike15:
Yup i have added that in build.prop..

but still cant able to get OSB...
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Aciong.Aksaya:
have you rebooted your fone after doing the config?

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] karanrajkapur:
Use XPOSED GravityBox Module if you cannot modify. Enable OSBs via build.prop and edit them using XPOSED. (Y)

After using 2-3 days I feel this rom is amazing. Thanks [MENTION=4733114]harsh586[/MENTION].

This is my first jelly bean ROM after unlocking boot loader. Respect man....:thumbup::thumbup::thumbup:

Every thing is great. Ram consumption is much less. My free ram is about 170 mb after normal usage and great battery life.

Camera is abnormal. Hope u fix it. ;)

GPS need some fix.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] -TheJoker-:
I agree GPS and camera need a fix
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] manoj_nike15:
Ofcourse dude..

i'm not a NOOB .. ;)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] DarkStryder:
Camera can not be improved anymore! If u want better camera go to sony and get jb libs!

touch problem solved

[MENTION=4733114]harsh586[/MENTION] I don't know what you have updated in version 8, but it just solved my touch screen problem which I was facing since 5 months, i.e. while unlocking the lockscreen, I need to unlock it 3-4times. also the same while receiving calls, the screen was taking 3-4 seconds to become fully continuously functional after waking up from sleep, but this Rom just solved my problem,I can hang on with this phone for a bit longer, pls keep this in mind while updating this Rom,thank you very much

---------- Post added at 07:33 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:13 PM ----------

one more thing, the issues which I found were,

1)when pattern lock is activated, slide is not getting deactivated, u need to slide as well as enter the pattern to unlock screen,

2)long pressing camera key doesn't open camera
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] john218:
I installed walkman in the given link provided in first page. But when I play music ,audio quality is bit noising.(music bit rate is slowed down) when the phone is tends to lock.

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] thunderstorm20:
!

Did you do a full wipe? if not, try a Full wipe, thats the last different thing which I did, somehow it got solved, im clueless, the Service Centre ppl were about to charge 3.1k rupees to solve this issue by replacing the Touch Screen. but 3.1k is just too much , so was dragging on, some how it got alright :laugh:
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] kratosrazor:
Yes i did a full wipe.i have flashed many roms like stocks or uhd 5 , sjb 7.1 , sjb 8.i've got this problem about two weeks ago when i was on uhd 5 and when i flashed stock ics i faced with this problem.:(

Anyway thanks for your help. :good:
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] aakash43:
I faced this problem on the release of ics but formatting sd card solved the problem for me ( done by sony service center).

---------- Post added at 07:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:52 PM ----------

Plz anyone tell how is the battery life with superfusion kitkat.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] thunderstorm20:
!

is it SD Card that they formatted :confused: ,
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] shubh_007:
Don't worry. Try using the phone without the sd card and see if the problem is solved. If not sd card is not a problem. ;)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] kratosrazor:
I also have tried that before.but i didn't format the sd card i removed it but it didn't work.

but thanks anyway.

Hi,

Just rebooted my phone and now i am getting data connection for 3g and 2g. :D
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] neelay92:
even i have the problem receiving calls...but i guess its because of some damage to the screen sensors maybe...your phone must have fallen down many times(just like me..):silly:

i dont think so its a ROM or kernel related issue
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] mastero9017:
This is very old, outdated FXP231 based ROM, isn't it? :cyclops:
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Attitude.SSJ:
Maybe it is... But how does the version matter?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] :
Anyhow theres no new changes for 2011 xperias since fxp 224 or something.

Cheers,

Proximity Sensor Issue

I searched through the thread not sure if the proximity sensor issue was resolved. I just came from v6.0 to v8.0 and started facing this issue, The scree gets turned off when making calls (happens at random, sometime it works fine). Always been on Fusion 5.5. Did a full wipe before installing 8.0. Tried going back to 6.0 now facing the same issue with 6.0...

Any suggestions/fixes??????
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] neelay92:
if it happens at random then probably it will get fixed in the next version of the ROM... although it shouldn't bother you...:silly:
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] shubh_007:
For me the issue of proximity sensor was present in earlier builds but it has been resolved in the latest one. :confused:
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] wasimraja_1982:
Flashed this a couple of days back. Found two problems

i) Occasionally, the processor speed seems to be frozen at the maximum speed. I verified this by going to setting-> Performance. On reboot, its fixed but comes back eventually.

ii) Camera is slow. In the previous version (7.0), the camera was amazingly fast and even took clear & crisp shots even when the object was moving. IT didnt wait for the object to become stable. I couldnt believe that a 5 MP camera could be so good. But now, its back to the default android performance and takes forever to zoom and pics are blurred incase of movement.

Is there anyway we could get the old camera performance back?:(
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Madaditya:
Take the Camera.apk from sjb7.zip/system/app

And push it to your fone I.e system/app/

Set permissions to rw-r-r

Disable/delete the old camera if dosent gets replaced

Reboot

Used both SE headset (the one it came with) and Signature Acoustics C12). It has a problem detecting it but after reinserting it for at least two to three times, it started working again. The same goes when i plugged in Griffin Stereo Aux Cable used in my Car Stereo. It does not detect on first try usually. Did not face this problem in other ROM.

If you use "2G/3G Only" from Network Modes in Widget buttons you can use either 2G only or 3G only.

I use:

greenify

ds battery saver (set to aggressive)

Super fusion kk kernel

InteractiveX

184 - 1017

Widgets are not greenified and ds bat as well

I noticed that with ds working sometimes the battery goes up...! Maybe misscalibration or just the kernel... Don't know.

Check the picture

The only downside is that you don't get continuous WiFi, but you can set it manually from ds bat

I never switch it off though

what's SOT?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Attitude.SSJ:
Screen on time I guess...
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] shubh_007:
Yeah. Screen on time
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] pduke7:
oke. unfortunately i didn't get one from the previous instance. i will take one at my next charge cause the one i am on now i forgot to open DS bat for the first 20%.

As you can see at my example i had not that much SOT (except the fact that SOT could be from reading ebook to playing game... ). the trick here though, is that DS bat works when the screen is off putting the phone in deep sleep. Now, when the screen is on then only greenify is working as energy saver app. so less SOT is giving huge advantage to battery life.

There is always the slumberer mode which kills apps (very usefull when playing game) but it gives me random reboots when in stand by so i don't suggest.

Anyway i ll be back with some screenshots but please try as well if you want and send feedback
